Sanjukta Sinha Kathak
Vibrant and youthful are terms that immediately come to mind when we think of Sanjukta’s dance. A student of legendary Kathak dancer and choreographer, Padma Bushan Smt. Kumudini Lakhia, she is able to push the Classical boundaries of Kathak while retaining the traditional form.
“Sanjukta Sinha delighted in the immaculate technique, verve and involved intensity”. The Hindu www.milapfest.com
